Hello Mike ! My guess is you're testing using Firefox. Firefox has a different rendering for alternative text, in the way that it respects the CSS display property applied to the img. So if your image is in display:inline (by default), any border would only display around the text. In order to have the border cover the entire area of the image, apply a display:block to your image.
